袭击
编辑案发时间为当地时间2024年12月22日早上约7点30分[3] [4],地点为停靠中的F线列车。该凶手接近车厢内唯一的乘客[5],随后使用打火机点燃她的衣服。火势迅速蔓延,受害者瞬间陷入火海[6][7]。
犯罪后,嫌疑犯离开车厢但未离开现场。旁观者的手机拍下一段影片,显示嫌疑犯坐在附近长椅上观看火势,并疑似用一件T恤扇动火焰[8][9]。当警员赶到现场时,随身摄影机记录下了嫌疑犯坐在车厢对面的长椅上的画面,但由于当时未确认其身份,嫌疑犯得以逃离。稍后,警方公布影片中的影像以寻求公众协助辨认。一名大都会运输署工作人员用灭火器扑灭火焰[10],但受害者仍于早上7点48分被宣告死亡[11][6][12]。
萨帕特-卡利尔最终在34街-先驱广场车站被捕,3名高中生在另一列地铁上认出他并报警[13][14][15][3]。警方在他身上发现一个打火机[16][17]。
截至12月24日,受害者身份仍未确认[18][19][20]。当局表示她是一名无家可归者[12]。此前,网络上曾流传一个虚假讯息,指称受害者名为阿米莉亚·卡特(Amelia Carter)[21],甚至附有AI生成的虚假图像[22][23][24]。法医验尸报告显示,受害者死于高温烧伤及吸入浓烟[25]。
嫌疑犯
编辑嫌疑犯为33岁的塞巴斯蒂安·萨佩塔-卡利尔[26][27],他于2018年因试图从墨西哥非法入境美国亚利桑那州边境而遭引渡,随后仍成功非法进入美国[28][29]。目前尚无法确定他在美国的停留时间[27]。
事发后不久,萨帕特-卡利尔即被警方逮捕,并被控一级谋杀、二级谋杀及纵火罪[29][30]。12月23日晚间,他曾被送往医院,但隔天即出院[25]。根据当局调查,嫌疑犯与受害者并无任何关系,这宗袭击事件极可能是无端挑衅所致[31][32][33]。12月24日,萨帕特-卡利尔出庭受审,但并未作出任何辩护声明[34][7][35]。检察官在庭审中透露,萨帕特-卡利尔曾告诉警方,他当时喝了大量酒精,完全不记得发生过什么[34]。
反应
编辑纽约市市长艾瑞克·亚当斯在X/Twitter平台上发文指出:“这种令人发指的行为在我们的地铁系统中毫无立足之地,我们承诺将全力以赴,确保对所有暴力犯罪的受害者伸张正义[36]。”纽约市警察局局长杰西卡·蒂施形容此事件是“一个人对另一个人能犯下的最令人发指的罪行之一”[37]。即将上任的边境事务专员汤姆·霍曼批评市长艾瑞克·亚当斯和纽约州州长凯西·霍赫尔,认为他们的政策让纽约市成为“非法移民的避风港”[38][39]。
布鲁克林地方检察官艾瑞克·冈萨雷斯表示:“这宗针对弱势女性的残酷暴力行为将面临最严厉的法律制裁[40]。”
网络上许多人对一些纽约市警察局警员表达强烈不满,这些警员当时站在列车外,却眼睁睁看着受害者被火焰吞噬[41]。同时,旁观者的冷漠态度也引发批评,活动家和媒体谴责他们选择拍摄影片,而非上前协助受害者[42]。
